I know you all love books, so today I’ve got a fun giveaway for a new book, Big Impact Landscaping by Sara Bendrick. Transform your space on any budget with 28 DIY Projects for homeowners to beautify and add value to your home. Expert landscape designer and TV host of DIY Network’s I Hate My Yard, Sara packs 10 years of experience into this beautiful how-to guide that will teach readers the best, most efficient ways to elevate their yard and get the most out of it at every budget.
We all know firsthand how much landscaping projects impact a home. I can certainly attest to that with my current home and how much it changed when I landscaped the front yard. Talk about the wow factor!

The book is for crafty men and women who love to get creative and enjoy doing DIY projects.

Sara is giving away 2 copies to my readers, so all you have to do is leave a comment and tell me what sort of landscape project would you like to tackle at your house? Interested in adding a privacy screen, fireplace/firepit, dry creekbed, water feature? What’s on your list?
I’ll choose 2 winners at random and you’ll both get a book! Giveaway ends one week from today!




I have a blank slate at my new country home so have every type project outdoors to tackle over the next couple of years!
We are hoping to make several improvements to our outdoor spaces: fireplace, pergola, etc. Thanks for the chance to win this book!
We need to add a pergola over our patio to provide shade for family time dinners and such! Also a fire pit would be great!
My list is so long on things I’ve been wanting to do, but we are at a stand still about whether we are staying or buying another property to build. I feel like it is time to bite the bullet and do some of the projects so we can enjoy. Extend patio, add a sink and fridge, pergola or covered roof to the extension for shade in our hot climate, firepit to enjoy the area year around, and a giant chess game that is on our childs wish list.
Looks like a great book for outdoor projects. I’m always looking for new idea’s for my outdoor space.
